AKEL Letter to Energy Minister – Calls for Plan for Domestic Photovoltaics – What New Proposals Did the Party Submit?

AKEL expressed its concern about the gap created by the termination of support schemes for domestic photovoltaic systems and building energy upgrades at the end of 2025, without new schemes being announced. It believes this undermines the green transition and creates uncertainty for households. The party calls on the Energy Minister to provide immediate information on new plans and to take measures to make domestic energy storage affordable. At the same time, it submitted proposals for the continuation of net metering for vulnerable groups, combined support for photovoltaics with storage and energy upgrades, the creation of programs for energy communities, and the establishment of subsidized energy audits.
